| Description of course/cirriculum | The students are divided into six-member teams to collaborate on industrial projects presented by experienced scientists and engineers. The corresponding problems are not the kind of academic exercises often considered in classrooms. The challenges they raise typically require fresh new insight for both formulation and solution. During the workshop, each group is mentored by both the problem presenter and a faculty adviser. |
